Did you search Carrillo Knives or Carrillo Design? Second one showed up in a search and last updated in May. Not that it means much

This is the best course of action. However, you can also pay with PayPal goods and services, in which case you have 6 months (180 days) to file a dispute and get your money back should the seller refuse or fail to refund you after a request made, say, 5 months after making the payment. Or, if you want to stay on the seller's books and the dispute period is coming to a close, you tell them you want a refund on the amount paid, after which you'll send the payment (via goods and services) again to renew the 180-day dispute period. If the maker won't agree to this then they're a scumbag.

Good idea! I just played the dispute card on an overdue custom and low an behold it showed up before the PayPal deadline.
 
Still waiting on mine!! Going on 3 years!!! I have been given different excuses.

I hope to get a knife from him someday!!
 
I too am still waiting on a 3 year old order.
while many new knives repeatedly show up at dealers
SIGH
 
I just clicked on the link some one posted and checked out a Carrillo on the ACK site......and my jaw hit the floor!
> $1,400 for G10 and 154cm?? Really??
I'm being serious, was he really that good??? In the past??
I'm having trouble justifying that price for the materials used. A lot of trouble.
Also, it looks a bit like a Medford design.
This guy totally sucks.

I have been in contact with Windy City and they vouch for Dwaine. However, I have been waiting (paid in full) since June 2014. I believe Dwaine is a scam artist. He has a picture of him in the hospital on his website, and whether or not he is really sick is irrelevant to me as he can make knives for dealers with the money we are paying him to cover his expenses. I think he is a thief and a liar. No honor. No one should support his business. He won't refund my money and I don't ever expect to see a knife from him.
 
Dwaine Carrillo wheres my knife why dont you email back your customers
You also dont return my phone calls
Its been 4 years now and your customer service and people skills show how much lack of concearn you have.

You spend more time writing BS excuses and BS medical shit,
than it would take to actually just personnaly reassure any of your paid in full customers. I was dumb to buy into your excuses and your lack of communication after taking almost 1000$ from me is downright crookedness.

i will not rest untill i recieve satisfaction.

I’m on my fifth year now waiting for a back ordered carrillo knife. Lots of promises then excuses then.......nothing. I’ve tried so hard to be patient......I’m out $1250...what the hell am I to do. . Worked hard to save that money. I’m not a collector. I’m just a father of four who got screwed out of $1250 hard earn dollars. You don’t want to know what my wife thinks.....of me or Carrillo. Now even the site is down......no response at all.........I was tired of hearing “trust me”.......five damn years......wtf......doesn’t Dwaine have any friends to help and at least knock out what he owes as backorders? For Christ’s sake just send me all the parts.......SOMETHING?
 
Just saw this and I feel your pain. It’s been about 5 years for me also. It’s been a write off for me for some time. After years of excuses and nutty health stories from him I finally gave up. He no longer answers my emails or picks up his phone. If I lived closer to Oklahoma I would have filed for judgement against him. He has no honor.
